    1 ) Introduction [TORI]===============================================================================

    Hey everyone!So, this is the first walkthrough I've ever written, so it might not be thebest one ever, but I tried xD I've always been a fan of the Tales games,my first one being Phantasia on the SNES. From then on I've been hooked! I'veplayed all of the american releases, but was disappointed that a lot of themhad not been localized! Now my mission is to get the rest imported, and itseems like my parents read my mind since they gave me this game last christmas!

    However, the peace between the two races suddenly began to collapse.

    Many lives were lost due to incidents occurring in various places. Due to thechaos that began on the death of King Ladras, people called this incident the"Dusk of Ladras".

    In the north of the village of Sulz, the fate of a cold, lonely youth by thename of Veigue would be greatly changed by the "Dusk of Ladras".

    One Year Later,

    In front of an unsociable Veigue towers a giant ice block. Inside of it,Claire, a girl from his childhood, is trapped. This sight has remainedunchanged since exactly one year ago.

    Veigue has tried everything in his power to break Claire's confine, to noavail. The only thing he can do is watch... But it is then that a strange duoarrives to the village, and are able to melt away the ice that entraps Claire.

    The emergence of these two nudge Veigue to leave Sulz, and start on a journey..

    Throughout his journey, Veigue will meet many people through a variety ofcircumstances, and he will soon be faced with the problems of Karegia.

    Veigue and company will struggle to look for the answer, whilst entanglinghimself with the lives of others.

    Can Veigue find the answer to "What is human?"

    ==========================Tales of Rebirth Keywords==========================

    Tribes and Kingdoms:This world is home to two tribes, the Humas who are born with high intellect,and the Gajumas who are born with excellent physical abilities. Although the

    Kingdom of Karegia is made up of these two tribes, since its founding, Gajumashave been crowned king for generations. Under their rule, the world has thrivedin both peace and prosperity. However, at the same time as the demise of thelate king, the world became covered with a dark shadow, bringing about an endto the peace of Karegia.

    Force:People's life and spiritual power has produced "special abilities". The powerof mind and heart, which has been influenced by the spirit of ancient times.Due to a certain event, what was originally a Gajuma-only ability, is now apower that is indistinguishable between different types of races. The Forcebegan to appear within all kinds of people. Force can be expressed in theform of art and technology, Force is something that is embodied by the

    "Force Cube".

    Virus:Things from nature are being transformed into monsters. Quite a few number ofthese monsters called Viruses seem to be popping up all over the world.However, currently that number has been starting to increase.

    o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o| Milk Peach Gummy || Carrots Life Bottle || Potatoes |o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o

    The game will start in Sulz, a small quiet village. Our Main Protagonist,Veigue, will be sulking inside an ice-looking place, and two newcomers willcome in to disturb him.

    You will have to fight the red-haired kid, Mao. It s a pretty easy battle.However, you don t have to win, plus it s time limited to 60 seconds. Youwon t be able to use skills at the moment either, so just hit away with yoursword until it s over.

    After, you will head outside of here and another small battle will trigger.This time it will be against 2 birds and a boar, but on the bright side, yournew companions will join you in battle! Afterwards they will join the party,and you will receive the BATTLE BOOK after an automatic skit.

    8/80

    When you are finally in control, head left from here. The house with thered-ish roof is a Weapon and Armor Store, however there is nothing worthbuying at the moment (and you don t have much money in the first place).

    Continuing on the left path, in the next screen there will be a house with apurple roof. This is the Inn/Food Store. There will be a Save Spot inside aswell. Use the facilities if you desire before returning to the previousscreen. This time head up the stairs on the upper left to continue. Enterthe only house there to trigger a scene.

    Afterwards, you will have to exit out of here and head to the Assembly Hall(the place where Claire had been frozen).

    Watch the scenes, and after you will be thrown in to battle. Tomah has51000 HP, soyou pretty much have no hopes in winning. After he obliteratesyou, Saleh will join in the fun and Claire will be taken away (surprise,surprise).

    After the scenes, Mao and Eugene will gain some titles:

    Mao: "Boy With Amnesia" +2 Slash Defense Power bonus. "Deserter" +2 Thrust Defense Power bonus.

    Eugene: "Ex-Commander" +2 Slash Defense Power bonus.

    Now head left for a scene with Claire s parents. After it you will now be ableto Cook. Awesomeness.

    Now before we leave Sulz there are a couple of things to do still. First,enter the Inn and talk to the guy manning the Food Store to obtain some MILK,CARROTS, and POTATOES. Then step outside to talk to the guy running the ItemStore to receive a PEACE GUMMY and a LIFE BOTTLE.

    Now it s time for our first sidequest!

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------*SIDEQUEST #1* Monica and Steve, Part 1 of 4

    Enter the weapon shop and talk to Steve (blonde guy) and a scene will trigger.After it, head to the Assembly Hall to talk to Monica and another scene willtrigger. That will be all for now.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Finally, after all of this feel free to leave the village. Once in the World

    Map, follow the path, and enter the Great Larulen Bridge.

    After a short scene, you will be introduced to the Dark Wings, who are part ofthe army. A small fight will ensue, it s not really anything worthy, but hereare their stats.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSSES: Ginnal HP: 1000

    Yusia HP: 500Drumb HP: 1200

  • 8/13/2019 Tales of Rebirth A

    9/80

    As you can tell, they re not that tough. Veigue will fight them alone, and Iwould recommend you to attack Ginnal first, followed by Yusia, and lastlyDrumb.

    After defeating them, you will receive some Milk, Carrots, and Potatoes, alongwith 6 EXP and 6 Gald.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    After the battle, exit and then continue following the road until you see asmall house in the distance. As you approach it a skit will trigger. Headinside after. This place is called the Keketto Hostel.

    ===============================================================================Keketto Hostel [ToR1B]===============================================================================

    The bear-like Gajuma at the counter will sell you some items and food. Stock upif needed and then head to the left. This will be the Inn. You willautomatically rest, but this will be disturbed not long after. What s going on?Exit this room to find out what.

    Hmm, so they re being controlled... After the scene you will be back at the

    Inn. To continue, examine the clock on the left wall and that will break themind control. After, exit the Inn.

    You will meet Walt, the third member of the Four Stars. You won t have to fighthim, luckily.

    After he s gone and you re back in control, continue following the southernpath to the Etoray Bridge.

    Once again, you will have to fight the Dark Wings. However, you won t be alonethis time. Their stats are the same, so just scroll up if you can t rememberwhat they are.

    Maaan I can t believe they blew out the bridge. It s never that easy!We re going to have to go back to the Keketto Hostel. Behind it there will bea small bridge. Cross it, and towards the SW will be a mountain, our nextdestination.

    ===============================================================================Alvan Mountains [ToR1C]===============================================================================

    o~~Item Checklist: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o| Red Refine Stone Peach Gummy x2 || Beef x2 Life Bottle x2 |

    | Lettuce Bread || 500 Gald |o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o

    Head inside, and after the first random encounter this notice will pop up:

    "The Viruses in this area fortify their defenses after particular attacks. Lookat how the enemy attacks and think about how to time the counterattack.Attacking an enemy in a defensive position reduces the damage dealt to 1/4.

  • 8/13/2019 Tales of Rebirth A

    10/80

    Take care not to attack recklessly and to avoid counterattacks." -lanyn stranslation guide.

    Keep that in mind as you head up. As you approach the ledge another scene willhappen. You will now be able to jump ledges by using the CIRCLE button. Best todo a bit of a jump start. Anyway head up to the top until another scene playsout, enabling you to use Veigue s Force by using the SQUARE button. However,don t use his Force to take the upper path just quite yet. First jump down fromthere and follow the path to the next screen to obtain a PEACH GUMMY. Then,return to the previous screen and take the path below that one which will leadto a chest with a LIFE BOTTLE.

    Now return to the previous screen and this time take the highest up path to thenext screen.

    In here, jump down to get to a chest with a LIFE BOTTLE. Then, return to thatspot and use Veigue s Force to jump up. The chest here will have 500 Gald.Alright! Now continue jumping up to the next platform, but before jumping upthe next one, jump down and grab the PEACH GUMMY that s in the next screen. Nowreturn to take the upper path and there will be a scene. After it, enter thecabin here to take a break. After the scenes you will now be able to Enhanceyour weapons! Basically, after battle you get some enhance points which you canattribute to your weapons and armor. Items can t hold more than 200 points ata time, so don t forget to use them up! Examine the bag here as well, and you

    will learn how to make HAMBURGERS!Anyway, use the Save Spot if you want, before exiting out of here. Continue onto the left, and approach the snow block. After the scene, you will be able touse Mao s Force, using the SQUARE button as well.

    Make your way down this screen, and at the button melt the blocks on your waybefore continuing to the next screen. Climb down the trunk here and jump to thenext ledge. Here, only melt one block, so you can jump on the remaining one toget to the next ledge. Be careful not to climb down the icy path, as you willslide. Instead head down the "stairs" so you can jump towards the chest with aRED REFINE STONE. Now, if you want you can head down the slide (like I did), oryou can take the path by the "stairs" on the right. Either way will ultimately

    take you to the same place. Anyway, after heading down the slide, melt the twoblocks and some BEEF from the chest there. A scene will now trigger, which willbasically inform you of how to get back to the beginning. By melting only oneof the blocks on the right you can jump up there and make your way back. Butobviously, don t do that. Instead, head down the stairs to get the four chestsat the bottom. One of them will be slightly hidden by the trees on the right.It will contain a SAGE herb. The other thee chests contain some LETTUCE, BREAD,and more BEEF. The peddler here will sell you gummies and life bottles, alongwith a whole lot of food.

    Now, before heading towards the exit of this dungeon make sure your HP is upbecause as you try to exit, it ll be Boss Battle time.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Leg Tight HP: 8000 Weak: Water Strong: FireMy Level: 9

    This guy has a bit more HP than the guys you ve face before, but don t worry.Between the three of you, he stands no chance!

    During this battle, have Veigue and Eugene corner him, while Mao spell casts inthe background. Make sure Mao isn t using any fire spells as that will be notbe useful.

  • 8/13/2019 Tales of Rebirth A

    11/80

    After defeating him, you will receive a Life Bottle and a Protect Topaz ringfor your efforts, along 303 EXP and 525 Gald.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    After, finally head out of this place.

    Once you are back in the World Map, follow the eastern path. You will noticethat it will start raining as you continue...

    So will your party. After the scene you will end up in the "Minal Plain" whichis a one-time-only area.

    ===============================================================================Minal Plains [ToR1D]===============================================================================

    This is a rather unique place, and as I said before, it s a one-time only area.You will never be able to come back here after we re finished with this place.

    In any case, just continue heading east until a scene triggers. It will beginraining harder, and then it will begin to snow. Odd. Now continue heading eastand you will notice that something doesn t seem quite right... Isn t that the

    icicle Veigue made earlier? Examine it and another scene will trigger. After,head east one more time and SAVE at the Spot before using Mao s Force on theicicle. This will trigger another scene, and subsequently, it will be BossBattle time.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Annie HP: 926My level: 10

    Annie is the least of your problems here, but do get rid of her first beforetargeting the three mercenaries that accompany her. Each mercenary will have3000 HP. There s not much strategy to use here. Just hit away until they'redown.

    You will receive 460 EXP and 720 Gald for your efforts.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    After the scenes, continue heading down the road until you arrive at Minal.

    ===============================================================================Minal [ToR1E]===============================================================================

    Soon after you arrive you will meet a young Gajuma named Misha. He will bringyou to Dr. Curia who will tend to Annie s injuries. Afterward, you ll be

    automatically transported outside of the Inn. From here head, enter the houseon the left with the green roof. Inheriting will become available at thispoint. Now, upgrade your Weapons and Armor from the Gajumas at the top right,and stock up on items from the Gajuma on the bottom left. Also, make sure tobuy a Lucky Cat/Manekineko from here as well, as it will be useful later on.Now exit this place and head down the slope to the next screen. Therebuilding here will be a Bar, but we ll visit this place later so head to theleft once more. Enter the house in this screen and check the bag at theright to learn the SANDWICH recipe. Then exit, and head to the Harbor bytaking the upper path. Approach the soldiers here for a scene. After, return

  • 8/13/2019 Tales of Rebirth A

    12/80

    to the previous screen, and after the scene, approach the guy carrying theheavy box. At this point you will have two choices to take.

    Do you go in Tomichi s boat, or do you sneak into the Harbor by carryingthat box? The latter is easier, but while the former requires you to pay1000 Gald (don t worry, you get it back) you also have more chances totrain.

    Personally, I shall cover Tomichi s boat, since carrying the box is alreadytranscripted by lanyn s Translation Guide (and Spekio s), as well as Kouli swalkthrough.

    Now head to the first screen out of town to speak to Tomichi. Pay him andyou will end up at the beach. The little rat will try to attack you then,but luckily, Veigue s reflexes are as sharp as ever.

    After some more talking, your party will have to fight against three Sailors,each having 2750 HP. After the fight Tomichi will try begging for yourforgiveness and he will return your money. Afterward you will end back inMinal. Head to the middle of town (the screen before the Harbor) and ascene will trigger. Claire was in this town?! After the scene, followMisha back to the Inn and head downstairs. Enter the door in the back tomeet with Dr. Curia once more. After some talking, Annie will finally wakeup. However, her careless words will hurt Misha, whose Force will run out of

    control! We re going to have to search for him and hope he s okay.

    Exit the Inn and head to the middle of town for more scenes. We ll seeDr. Curia here again. Afterward, return to the previous screen and takethe path to the lower left. Misha will be here, but he will run off. Sowe ll have to return to the first screen of the town and talk to Dr. Curiathere. Click on the first option that pops up to follow after Misha. Asmall fight will then ensue, and Annie will join to help!

    Afterward, head back inside the Inn and downstairs again. More scenes,and after leaving the Inn, Annie will join your party.

    At this point, a couple more sidequests will open up. And let s finishexploring this town while we re at it.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------*MINIGAME #1 ALERT*If you enter the bar and talk to the waiter in the middle you ll be able toparticipate in the Waiter/Waitress minigame. The objective is to get thedrinks to your customers without spilling. If you run too fast, or for toolong, you will trip and the drink will spill. Later on, there will be people

    walking around and you have to make sure not to bump into them on your wayto your customer. There will be a timer at the top too, so you ll have todo this fairly quickly, but don t be too nervous. You ll only lose some

    Gald if you go over the time, but you will still get your titles. This isa nice way to earn money if you get used to it.

    You ll have to do this with every single one of your characters to get their"Nice Waiter/Waitress" title. However, since you are still missing twomembers, you ll have to come back later to complete this. In addition togetting everyone a title, once you have completed this with everyone, youwill get a recipe out of it.

    So, from the middle of town, take the upper left exit which we have beenignoring until now. In this new screen, we can continue forward into theLibrary, or we can head down the stairs on the right to get to the Gymnasium.Head to the Gymnasium first. Talking to the old man inside will begin the

    Completion Old Man quest. Basically, he will give you items depending on howmany enemies are registered in your Battle Book. For example, having 5 entrieswill get you some Step Boots, and so on. Here s the list of it:

    -05 Entries: Step Boots-10 Entries: Majin Spirit Talisman(Zehhyoujin -> Majinken)-20 Entries: Apple Gumi-30 Entries: Fuujin Spirit Talisman(Shunrenjin -> Fuujinken)-40 Entries: Recovery Refine Stone-50 Entries: Peach Gummy

    Throughout the FAQ, I will remind you to come pick up new items from him fromtime to time. Anyway, after we re done talking to him, head to the Library.

    Once in here, the first thing you should do is talk to the brown-haired womanstanding here. Chose the third option when prompted and you will get some newtitles.

    Veigue: "Free Youth" +2 FG Recovery bonusMao: "Free Boy" +2 HP Recovery bonusEugene: "Free Middle-Aged Man" +2 FG Recovery bonusAnnie: "Free Girl" +10 HP

    After, head up the stairs and talk to the purple man here. Remember him as wewill be talking to him veeery often throughout the game. This starts theMobile Library Quest. Anyway, when prompted, chose the first option and youwill receive the LIBRARY CARD. After, head out of here and head back to theGymnasium.

    Talk to the guy behind the counter dressed in blue and he will give you backthe library book. Now return to the library and speak to the library (purpleguy) and we ll be done here... for now.

    The last thing worth mentioning would be that as you approach the firstscreen of Minal you ll see a guy with a cowboy hat standing there. He will beyour most useful source of transportation in the beginning of the game. Payinghim 300 Gald will allow him to take you anywhere you will like. You shouldprobably learn to recognize the katakana of every town s name, to use thiseffectively.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With all this done, finally head out of Minal. Once you are back at the WorldMap, Follow the path to the SW across a bridge and then continue following ituntil you arrive at the Forest Labyrinth.

Also, there are cooking recipes that will raise your RG at thebeginning of battle, so use them wisely." -lanyn s translation guide

    Anyway, once you enter the forest go towards the left until you get a scene.Annie will get the title "Aspiring Female Doctor" which has a +2 FG Recoverybonus. Now that you are back in control, go down the hidden path you just

    uncovered. (If you keep taking the left path you will be in a continuousloop.)

    The next screen looks a little confusing but it s not really. Go down a bitto hit a scene where Mao will scare Annie, only to fall down a small cliff.After he gets back up and you are in control head up and into the next screen.

    In this third screen, jump down once and head to the left to get a treasurechest with a LIFE BOTTLE. Then go back to the right to jump down the ledge.Head back to the right screen and head towards the chest, but be careful notto be on the edge or you will fall. The chest contains a LIFE BOTTLE. Headback to the left screen again. Here, jump all the way down towards a chestthat contains BREAD. Now there multiple ways to take, but you ll ultimately

    end up in the same place. For best results, jump down on to the ledge that sright under the chest where you got the Bread and go up a little beforetaking the first path to the right. You ll end up near a save point and achest containing a PEACH GUMMY. Go down the stairs and towards right to entera new screen. You ll see a bunch of chests here but you can only open threeof them. They contain a RESIST PEARL ring, a LAVENDER herb, and a CHAMOMILEflower.

Return to the screen with the save pointand go to the left, you ll be back in the third screen. In here go up andtake the first path to the right again, but this time don t had to the nextscreen. Instead jump down the ledge and head to the right. You ll be back inthe screen with the save point, however you will come out of a cave and beable to enter a new path. With that said, go south to return to a familiarscreen. Head down the little hill to get to that last treasure chest andyou ll receive another LIFE BOTTLE. Then, go up the hill and head to theleft for a Boss Battle.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Grand PascuMy level: 17

    You ll face off with against a Grand Pascu and two Perky s. Naturally, take thetwigs out of the way first before attacking the Pascu. Mao s Flare Shot isreally useful in this battle. It s not too hard a battle, just beware ofPascu s jumps and heal when necessary.

    You ll receive a Poison Charm and a Magical Pearl for your efforts.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    Now exit out of the forest (finally!). On the way there will be a scene, and

    Annie will receive the title "Scaredy Cat" that has a +2 Magic Defense bonus.Also, a notice will pop up, alerting you that Skills (Ougis) are now availablefrom the menu.

    We re back in the World Map! The walk to Petnadjanka is quite short so justfollow the path and enter the town.

    ===============================================================================Petnadjanka [ToR1G]===============================================================================

    After the scene, head into the first house you see and check the crate inside

    to learn how to make FRUIT PUNCH. Exit the house and head north into the nextscreen. You ll be in the center of the town and a scene will immediately playout. There is an Inn here, with a Food Store and a Save Point inside. You canpick up some fruits for your Fruit Punch there if you want, and if you sleepat the Inn you ll trigger a skit of Veigue brooding over Claire once again.

    If you head west of the fountain you ll find an Equipment Store, so feel freeto get some upgrades.

    Anyway after the scene by the fountain is done head up the stairs in the backand a couple more scenes will play out. Afterward, head towards the factory inthe back.

    | Apple Gummy |o~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~o

    The first thing you should do once in here is check the lockers to the right tofind a PEACH GUMMY. Then head towards the left and as soon as you enter thisroom check the drawers to get 1500 GALD. The chest near the Save Point containsa LIFE BOTTLE. Head back to the room with the lockers, and this time take thenorthern path. Ignore the door to the right and talk to the man near the tree.You ll receive a POISON CHARM from him, which you should equip since themonsters in this area are poisonous. Now go back to that door you passedbefore and enter.

    In this area you ll need to burn the flowers in your way with Mao s fire (Ifyou forgot how to: Hit the SQUARE button). There is a chest in this area, butunfortunately, you can t get to it yet. Burn the flower in front of the ladderand climb up. Head towards the left and hit the lever to open up a path towardsthe next screen.

    In this screen there is a huge flower in the middle which you need to examine.But first go down the ladder and examine the crates there to receive someBANANAS. Anyway, head back up to the big flower and examine it. Mao will tryto burn it, but nothing will happen. Veigue will freeze it then, but that llonly last for a little bit so quickly head to the right and burn the small blueflower before the big one unfreezes. You ll have to do this again with the one

    on the left. Burn the small pink flower as well and enter the doorway that youfreed up. There ll be two treasure chests here, containing a KIWI fruit and aPANACEA BOTTLE. Also, examine the sacks to obtain COAL. Now return to theprevious screen and go down the rightmost path. Head down the bridge andtowards the furnace in the back. Examine it and say YES when prompted. Maowill use the Coal and light up the furnace with his Force and the huge flowerwill finally burn. Go back to the previous screen and take the middle path thistime. You ll finally be able to get rid of that last blue flower. Now hit thelever toactivate the conveyor belt. You ll have to go around again to reach it.Before leaving to the next screen however, under the furnace there is a pathyou can take. There s a treasure chest there with a JUTSU REFINE STONE.

    Return to the previous screen and finally take the ladder up and go down the

    conveyor belt.Finally, a new area. Burn all the flowers in your way, and don t forget topick up that chest at the bottom left corner to get a LIFE BOTTLE. Alsoexamine the barrels next to the chest to obtain a SYRUP BOTTLE. Don t forgetto burn the tiny little orange flower at the bottom near the conveyor belt.Now hit the lever to activate the belt. Before getting on it, head up and tothe right to obtain an APPLE GUMMY.

    Finally take the belt to the next screen, and again burn all the flowers.

    Once you burn the peach-colored flower at the bottom, two paths will open up.You can either head up to exit the dungeon and stock up on items if needed or

    you can just continue forward. The next screen is Boss Battle time.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: TytreeMy level: 19

    Although Tytree doesn t hit very hard, he is EFFING fast, so watch out. Justkeep hitting him until finally Mao and Eugene will perform their Hi-Ougi,Inferno Drive, and finish the battle.

    17/80

    Sadly, you don t get any item drops this time around. Boohoo.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    However, after the battle is done, you gain a new companion! Yay! ^^

    Now head out of the factory, watch some scenes, and exit the town. Our nextdestination is Sannytown, although to get there you first have to head SEtowards Toyohose Hostel. The path there is pretty direct, you can t miss it.

    ===============================================================================Toyohose Hostel [ToR1I]===============================================================================

    Well, the boats we were planning to take were wrecked by a sudden storm(*coughs* Saleh >.>), so we have to go collect some wood. Alright, well afterthe scene ends, head over to the right and into a new screen. After enduring akind of amusing pun by Mao, you ll have to collect some mushrooms along withthe wood. Once you ve collected enough, Veigue will speak up and you ll beallowed to leave this screen. However, right before you can leave you ll hearTytree yell. Veigue will run back to catch Tytree talking a mysterious man, whotries to persuade him to poison your party in exchange of his sister.

    Dun dun dun!

    After the mysterious man jumps off the cliff, hopefully to his death, Veiguewill hand over the mushrooms to Tytree, and the wood to Eugene. If you pickedup any mushrooms with white spots, Tytree will tell you that they arepoisonous, although not lethally so, as they are "Laughing Mushrooms". Howeverif you did not pick any of those up, he will be impressed with you! Thisdoesn t affect your game in any other way though.

    Return to the Hostel to hand over the wood to Gugura-san. Hopefully they ll bequick with the repairs. In any case, it s time to eat. You ll be automaticallytaken inside of the house, where Veigue will begin to panic over the food andrefuse to eat it.

    The meal will be interrupted by a commotion outside however. Gugura-san is in

    danger! Head outside to sadly enough, find that the mysterious guy is alive andwell. This time, he ll be backed up by two pirate-bandit-looking guys. Oncethey see you though, they ll run off to the forest. Let s follow them and kicktheir asses!

    Before the battle starts, you ll find out that your food was poisoned, soalmost all your party will be affected by its laughing powers throughout theentire battle, which makes for a hilarious sight. Speaking of which, the battleis piece of cake and not worth noting anything special. As usual, get rid ofthe underlings first before tackling the big guy. Conveniently enough, you llreceive a PANACEA BOTTLE for your efforts.

    After the battle, you ll be reassured that Tytree is a good guy after all,

    although not quite bright. While he did throw away the poison he receivedbefore, you find out that the white-spotted mushrooms are actually notpoisonous at all. In fact, the plain mushrooms are the poisonous ones! Tytreedid not mean to intentionally poison everyone, so he ll be forgiven... thistime. ^^ He ll also receive the title "XX Chef" which has a +2 Skill AttackPower bonus.

    After all of that, you ll be back at the house. Gugura-san s apprentice willcome in to tell you the reparations are complete. Head outside and talk toGugura-san who s standing by the pier.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------*MINIGAME #2 ALERT*You ll be introduced to Mini Rafting here. The objective is to avoid any logs,rocks, and enemies on your way to the goal. Every time you hit any obstacles orenemies you will lose 1 HP, so be careful! If you lose all your health, you llhave to try again. The first time is an exception though.

    You can use the CIRCLE button to throw fruit at your enemies once you havesome, and use X to jump. You can only move left and right. This game is reallyfast so be careful!

    There ll be a couple of items in the water you can pick up, although not all ofthem are good for you. You ll want to pick up as many Fish as you can as theyincrease you score. The Swim Rings recover 1 HP (Max HP is 5) and the Oarsspeed up your movement. Avoid the Bubbles, which will prevent you from jumping.

    If you do manage to touch one however you can easily destroy it by throwingfruit at it. Each Fruit you pick up serves for 5 throws.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    If you want to get to Sannytown you have no choice but to participate. Near theend of the minigame a skit will come up alerting your arrival. Veigue willreceive the "Rafting Man" title which has a very nice +20 HP bonus.

    If you beat the game with a score of at least 100,000 you ll receive his"S Rafting Man" title, which has a much nicer +70 HP bonus. You ll need to doit for all four different routes though so make sure to come back for it later.

    ===============================================================================Sannytown [ToR1J]===============================================================================

    Time to explore the new town! As soon as you arrive, head up the slope and hitthe town. The yellow building on the left is the Item/Equipment Store so feelfree to upgrade and stock up on anything you need. The green building is theInn/Food Store. Enter it and head up the stairs to examine the pot of food. You

    will learn how to make RISOTTO. Yum!This town is pretty big, so feel free to explore it on your own. However dohead down from this screen, past the gardener, and enter the first house yousee. It llbe yellow and inside there ll be an old man with a lot of cats.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------*SIDEQUEST #4* The Cat Loving Old Man

    Basically, this old man will give you information on where to find DiscoverySpots (green circles that will appear on the World Map). After you have found acertain amount of Spots, he ll give you some titles, but you ll need to givehim the BECKONING CAT item first, which you can buy at the Item Store in Minal.

    There s 64 Discoveries in total, and you won t be able to finish this questuntil near the end of the game. Throughout this walkthrough, I ll point outwhere to find plenty of these DISCOVERY SPOTS, but I most likely won t coverthem all.

    You can get the following titles from him:-After talking to him once, you ll receive the "Traveler" title.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To continue with the storyline, head to the right of the screen with theInn/Stores. Walk towards the soldier that s blocking the port to trigger ascene. Once again, you will be denied your boating rights. Guess we ll keep onwalking then. Head back to the center of the town and a woman will stop you.Her daughter Hilda has also been kidnapped, and not too long ago. Looks like

    Saleh and Tohma left west from here, to the Tel Alla Hostel, so let s catch upto them quickly! Exit the town using the southward exit, which is by the CatLoving Old Man s House.

    We re back on the World Map. Before following the Western path, first head inthe SE direction and enter the Farm Fresh Groceries.

    ===============================================================================Farm Fresh Groceries [ToR1K]===============================================================================

    There s not much to do here. If you speak to the girl in the middle you llreceive a MAGICAL POT. You ll have to raise its level to obtain some recipes

    from the girl on the left.Throughout the world there will be many FFG locations. You know those FoodTickets we ve been collecting? Once you have collected 54 of them, speak to thegirl in the middle and give them all toh. Afterwards, you ll have to waste somemoney here to raise your Magical Pot Level.

    You will receive the following recipes for doing so:

    Fried Chicken (Level 6+)Vegetable Salad (Level 12+)Seafood Gratin (Level 18+)Mabo Curry (Level 24)

    There s nothing else to do here so head out and follow the path towards theTel Alla Hostel. Not too far from Sannytown, if you look towards the Southwarddirection on your compass, you ll spot a treasure chest with a BANANA TICKET.Return to the path and follow it until soon enough you ll spot the Tel AllaHostel, hidden by a couple of trees. I highly recommend you have Annie in yourparty. Also, save before entering.

    ===============================================================================Tel Alla Hostel [ToR1L]

    20/80

    ===============================================================================

    You ll meet Hilda almost immediately. Looks like she was able to escape thanksto Claire and Selena, although Tohma s right on her trail. Head outside theHostel to confront them and you ll find out that Hilda s a stinking liar.You ll be thrown into combat. Boss Battle time.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Hilda HP: 4420My level: 20

    Not one of the toughest battles, thankfully. You ll be facing off against Hildaand three other soldiers. Getting rid of the underlings won t take too long, sotarget them first as usual, before focusing your attack on Hilda. She s a magicuser, so once you start your attack on her, she won t be able to retaliatemuch, if at all. When you lower her HP down to the 2000 s the battle will bestopped by Tohma.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    And it will be revealed that Hilda is a Half , the child of a Human and aGajuma. Ummm, yeah.

    Looks like she was deceived by Tohma as well, and she s not taking it well.Tomah will run off and leave you with an enraged Hilda to battle with. Again.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Hilda (Berserk Mode) HP: 4420My level: 20

    Things are a little tougher now, but thankfully you only have to battle Hildathis time around. Sadly, even if you blitz her, she won t stagger and her magicattacks are damned strong, so watch out and heal when needed.

    When you get her HP down to around 450 Annie and Veigue will end the fight withtheir Hi-Ougi, Ryuuko Metsugazan. If Annie isn t in your party however, youwill have to beat her thoroughly.

    Once again, no item drops, so you ll have to content yourself with the 1213 EXPinstead.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    Looks like Hilda pulled an Annie on us. Let s head back to Sannytown and gether to a doctor quickly. Just in case you forgot, you ll have to follow thepath back in the NE direction.

    ===============================================================================Sannytown [ToR1M]===============================================================================

    Once in Sannytown, head to the Inn and enter the room at the bottom for another

    scene. Ridiculously enough, yet another Force user decides to appear out ofnowhere once again. Head outside to meet up with your next boss.

    Once outside the Inn another scene will play out. You ll be introduced withanother Half by the name of Milista. She is one of the Four Stars... uh-oh.

    She ll knock your party out for a couple of seconds to chase after her Humaprey who ran away during the commotion. Once you are back in control, heal,stock up on items, save, and follow after her to the next screen. It s BossBattle time.

  • 8/13/2019 Tales of Rebirth A

    21/80

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Milista Clones HP: 613 eachMy level: 21

    Well, actually. Not really. You ll be fighting a couple of her clones, whom allhave generally low HP. Just attack them until the battle finally ends.

    You won t get anything out of this battle. Not even experience. Ugh.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    After the scene, head back to the Inn to find more clones will be blocking theway. Watch Mao and Veigue s awesome ass-kicking combination at work. Milistawill run off after this, so it s our job to chase her. If you haven t saved yetI suggest you do it now. This time, it really is Boss Battle time. Head up thestairs and into the next screen.

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-BOSS: Milista HP: 12260My level: 21

    Milista will be backed up by her never-ending clones in this battle, but justignore them and focus on the real thing. She ll teleport across the screen fromtime to time, so keep make sure you re hitting her and not her clones. Her

    clones always have less HP than her, so it s not hard to tell who s who. Justwatch out for her Spectral Field attack as that tends to throw you back.

    You ll receive a Peach Gummy and a Soul Card for your efforts, along with 1500Gald and 1393 EXP.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    Well, with that done, Hilda will join your party. You will now be able toperform Hi-Ougis. By now you have already seen two of them at work, Veigue s &Annie s Dragon Tiger Destroy Fang Slash , and Mao s & Eugene s InfernoDrive . Tytree & Hilda will now be able to perform their Thousand Braver .

    Here are the rest of the combinations you will now be able to perform:

    Veigue s & Mao s Embrace End and Veigue s & Hilda s Celsius Caliber .Eugene s & Annie s Soar Break Split Light Flash and Eugene s & Hilda s Duelthe Sun Tytree s & Mao s Crimson Sky Soar and Tytree s and Annie s

    Infinitia Strike

    You ll also obtain the Collector s Book.

    Now let s go look for the girl Milista was chasing earlier. From where you areright now, climb down the stairs on your right, then head two screens down.

    Enter the yellow house at the corner and examine the shivering blanket in thefirst floor to find Susie. A couple of scenes will play out, and you ll findout a little of what the Queen wants with the kidnapped Huma girls. Susie gives

    you more questions than answers unfortunately. Oh well.

    Looks like there s another commotion west of where you are, so go there now.A soldier will be addressing the town about the upcoming Crowning Ceremony.

    Looks like out next destination is Babilograd, however to get there we re goingto have to cross the Kurodadaku Desert. As you try to leave town, Veigue willthink about Claire, and actually, the game s POV will change over to Claire.Not much to do here except talk to everyone. You ll be back to controllingVeigue in no time.

    22/80

    So now that we re back in the World Map again, there are a couple of things todo before heading off to the desert. Let s return to Sannytown to get started.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------*SIDEQUEST #2* Mobile Library, Part 2 of 18*SIDEQUEST #3* Completion Old Man, Part 2 of 16

    First of all, we have to go back to Minal. The best way to do this is bytalking to the cowboy-looking man by the northern entrance. It ll cost you 300Gald, but it saves you the walk back. Once in Minal, there are a couple thingsto do here before heading to the library.

    First, if you didn t buy the BECKONING CAT item before, you should do so now soyou can give it to the Cat Loving Old Man.

    After, head to the bar to play the Waiter Minigame with Hilda and Tytree. Youshould have already played this with Annie, Eugene, Mao, and Veigue, and if youhaven t yet, get to it. Once you have done it successfully with all of yourcharacters you ll receive the GORGEOUS SALAD recipe.

    Tytree s Nice Waiter title has a +2 Slash Defense Power bonus, while Hilda sNice Waitress title has a +20 HP bonus.

    Next, head down to the Gymnasium and talk to the Completion Old Man. You shouldget the MAJIN SPIRIT TALISMAN from him, which if you equip on Veigue, willallow his skill Zehhyoujin to become Majinken.

    Lastly, head to the library to continue the Mobile Library quest. Just likebefore, talk to the guy upstairs and he ll tell you the location of the nextbook. Let s head back to Sannytown.

    Return to the house where you found Susie (if you forgot where that wasalready, from the center of the town, head right, then down a screen). Enterthe yellow house and head up the stairs to talk to a bird-type woman on thesecond floor. After obtaining the book you ll have to return to Minal to handit off. You won t get anything out of this again, but don t worry this quest

    will eventually pay off.Oh yeah, one last thing. Talk to the woman on the first floor to receive somemore titles. Tytree will get the Free Rascal title that has a +10 HP bonus,and Hilda will get the Free Older Sister title that has a +2 HP Regenerationbonus.

    Now let s return to Sannytown one last time, and get on with the storyline.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Alright it s time to head over to the Kurodadaku desert. Follow the main roadwhich you took to the Tel Alla Hostel before, but this time keep going untilyou hit the desert. A scene will trigger as soon as you do. Tytree will

    complain about the heat and eventually fall into a hole. How clumsy. Thankfullythere seems to be a body of water at the bottom that softened his fall. Let shead down to meet him.

    After the scene you find out that you ve stumbled across a walkway towardscivilization! Looks like we don t have to cross the desert after all.

    So, after the scene ends, you ll be able to walk around. Take a minute tolisten to the skits. One of them will get you Eugene s Dandy title that has a+3 HP Regeneration bonus.

    Walk towards the next screen and follow the long walkway until you hit a fork.There s nothing up there so head down to examine the rock and a small scenewill ensue. You ll finally be able to use Eugene s Force outside of battle! Iwas always curious about what his would do. Anyway, you ll have to fightagainst some enemies but it s nothing hard. Note that when using Eugene sForce, the longer you hold the SQUARE button down, the more destructive hispower will be. Use it with caution.

    When you are back in control, destroy the next rock in your path and continueto head down towards the next screen. You ll end up in a circular screen with a

    well in the middle. Take the southwestern exit and follow along the path untilyou come across some thorny vines. Examine it to receive a SAFFRON herb.

    Head back to the room with well. This time take the upper left path. Continueheading up until you see a water-spurting hole. Just wait for it die down andpass by it quickly, heading to the left. There ll be another water-spurtinghole waiting for you.

    Once that one quiets down, head southeast of it for a treasure chest containingPEACH GUMMY. Backtrack to the hole and this time, continue on to the left. Atthe next hole, head down once more to get a LIFE BOTTLE. Finally, backtrack tothe hole one last time and continue on to the left onto the next screen.Another scene will play out then.

    Once you can move again, you ll be back in the desert. Examine the treasurechest above to get a RECOVERY REFINE STONE. Take advantage of the saving spotbefore heading down the ladder once more. Don t ask me how the heck you can getinto a battle while climbing that ladder, because I don t get it either.

    Alright, once you re back down there are two paths you can take. First take thesouthwest exit. Destroy the rock in your way and follow along the path untilthe next screen. There will be a chest with BLUE LIQUID inside. Don t bother tohead up as you ll hit a dead end. Backtrack all the way back to the room withthe ladder, and this time take the right path. Make your way across carefullyto the next screen. If you get thrown down by the water, you ll end up in thatdead end I mentioned earlier and will have to backtrack once again. The next

    screen will have another well in the middle. Take the northeastern path firstand you ll be able to examine that thorny plant again. This time you willreceive a SAVORY herb.

    Return to the previous screen and head south this time. Before taking the SEpath down, don t forget to grab the treasure chest on the left which has aPANACEA BOTTLE. Follow the path to the next screen, and you ll end up inanother circular room. Head up to grab a DELAY CHARM from a treasure chest.Return to the previous room and take the SW path until you meet a fork. Wellnot really. There s only one way you can go. Follow the northwestern path to

    the next screen. In the next room you will see a ladder.Climb up to findanother ladder up ahead. Climb down to open up a chest with 1500 GALD.Additionally, take the SE path and examine the thorny vines to pick up aROSEMARY herb.

    Backtrack to the room with the first ladder. Head up until you see another oneof those thorny plants. Examine it to get a BELLEBANE herb. Finally, just headup from here to the next screen and you ll see the final ladder. Climb up andwe ll finally be out of this dungeon.

    Watch the scene play out. Annie will collapse with a fever and be removed fromyour battle party. Rearrange your party if needed and let s head out of here.Our destination is Anikamal, which is south from Karez. Before heading out,don t forget to pick up 1500 GALD from the treasure chest above.

    Once you re in the World Map you ll be able to immediately spot Anikamal. Headquickly there and try not to get into battle as the monsters here might be abit too strong for you. There are two treasure chest containing PORK TICKETS tothe east and west of Anikamal, so pick them up when you can.

    ===============================================================================Anikamal [ToR1O]===============================================================================

    We need to find a doctor. After the scene, exit the room and talk to the Innkeeper, who really won t be any help. Whatever. Head outside and enter the onlyother house here. Examine the pot in the middle of the room to learn the CURRYRICE recipe.

    Head back outside and talk to the Gajuma woman wearing orange clothes totrigger a scene. Tch. Looks like she s not any help either.

    Once the scene ends walk to the upper right to enter a new screen. Talk to thebear-like Gajuma to upgrade your equipment if needed as well as to stock up onitems. Once done, talk to the fishing man to trigger another scene. Man thepeople of this town are @$$holes.

    Continue on to the right and finally you ll find someone helpful. You ll haveto go back to the Inn now. However before entering Annie s room you ll noticethat a peddler is now standing by the saving point. Sadly he doesn t sellitems, but he does sell some nice accessories. Take advantage of it if you havethe money. Anyway, let s head to Annie s room.

    Okay bad news, Annie s contracted a fatal disease which is supposedlyincurable. Well...crap. To top it off you ll be kicked out of the Inn andsubsequently, the village. Wtf. You re going to have to head back to Frantz stent for now.

    After a scene the party will decide to go to the Oasis, hoping to find a curefor Annie s disease. Leave town and walk towards the NE direction. There s a

    chest around here with a CARROT TICKET. Also, there is another Farm FreshGroceries location around that you can visit if you want. Nearby it, hidden bysome of the trees, will be another chest with a CARROT TICKET.

    First of all, I hope you guys have been training because from here on out, themonsters get a little tougher. I suggest you all to be in level 27 if you rethe type that likes to button smash. With that said, this place is, awesomelyenough, quite short. Alrighty. First let s head to the right to pick up someitems. A treasure chest with 2000 GALD is hiding inside of that tree trunk, soget it and return to the previous screen. Next take the northwestern path andfollow it until you are at a clearing with a river. A treasure chest containingsome CHICKEN will be hidden by the tree s foliage. Back track to the firstscreen and finally take the northeastern path into the tree trunk.

    You will see a couple of purple horses walking around the screen in this area.Before you head towards them, look behind the big tree and you should find atreasure chest with an APPLE GUMMY hiding behind.

    You can try to avoid the purple horses if you want, but I recommend you fightthem. If you ve trained you should have no trouble beating them. If you haven ttrained... get to it!

    Don t head to the next screen yet. First check out the tree trunk on the top

    that has an entrance. Enter it to get a LIFE BOTTLE, a SAGE herb, and a FIGHTPEARL.

    Exit the tree, fight the purple horses, and head right to the next screen.

    More purple horses. They re kind of disturbing-looking aren t they? In any caseget rid of them and head towards that treasure chest at the top right of thescreen, which has some PORK. Follow the path to the left and cross the woodenbridge to the next screen.

    Alright, there s a treasure chest here that s a little hard to see, but itcontains a AWAKENING REFINE STONE. Take out the four purple horses in your wayto get to it and it ll be Boss Battle time.

    The Live Garo will be backed up by two of those creepy purple horses. I dpersonally love to get those out of the way first, however the Live Garo willrun away if you don t defeat it fast enough. And by fast enough I mean 30seconds. There s a timer on the top of the battle screen that you might notnotice. Keep an eye on it as you charge at the golden horse. Thankfully, eventhough it runs away, the damage you deal it will stay the same.

    You ll receive a Lemon Gummy and a Charge Pearl for your efforts, along with

    4012 Gald and 2557 EXP.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    You ll also obtain Live Garo s Horn.

    We re going to have to head back to Anikamal to make the medicine. Head out ofthis place (you ll be glad to note that the purple horses have finallydisappeared) and walk in the western direction to reach the town.

    In this screen head forward and flip the lever on the side to access a chestcontaining a MIND PEARL. Backtrack a bit and take the upper left path up thosestairs to enter a new screen. Just follow the path until you come outside aclearing. There ll be a treasure chest with a LIFE BOTTLE there. Take the upperright exit and you ll be back in the dungeon. A scene will play out after youwalk in a little further. It s the Dark Wings again! Eerrrr. The Dark Fangs Imean. ...Okay, apparently they re called the Dark Claws now...

    Anyway, the leader seems to be injured so Annie will help him and then they llleave you alone. No battle this time. You ll be back in control soon enough.Head up the stairs to get a PANIC CHARM before taking the lower path to thenext screen. Head down the stairs until the next screen where you will findanother chest trapped behind some bars. Flip the switch like last time andyou ll be able to get 2575 GALD. Take the lower path out of this screen to endup in another fork. Take the upper path first to get a PEACH GUMMY from a chestbefore heading down the stairs to the right. You ll end up outside again. Getthe CHEESE from the chest before heading down to where those crates are.Covered by the foliage there ll be a chest with an APPLE GUMMY. Climb up thehill and cross the bridge and you ll be back in the dungeon. Oh yay. Head up toget a SHIELD PEARL from a chest hiding behind the wall. You won t be able toaccess the other chest in this room so just continue on to the next screen.

    Okay, this room has a Save Point and I HIGHLY suggest that you save. Also checkthe barrels to the north of the Save Point to get an APPLE. Walk up the upperleft stairs get some POTATOES from the treasure chest there before exiting tothe next screen. Follow the path to the next screen and get 2469 GALD from thechest on the way.

    In the next screen you can either pull the two levers there to get to the upperright exit, or just go around them, since the stairs at the upper left take youthere anyway. Once outside there ll be two chests with some CARROTS and a FORCEPEARL ring.

    Head back inside and this time take the upper left exit. You ll be ambushed bya new face by the name of Donnell. And guess what?

    It s Boss Battle time!

    Donnell will be backed up by Saleh and Tomah mud-dolls, who both have 4000 HP.Don t bother getting rid of them just yet as Donnell will just end up revivingthem. This isn t a hard battle, just a time consuming one due to Donnell smonstrous HP.

    When you are done you ll receive a Burst Bottle and a Switch Mail armor for

    your efforts, along with 3000 Gald and 3676 EXP.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    After the scene, just have Eugene destroy the debris and you ll be able to exitto the next screen. We re sadly back again in this dungeon and its stupidpurple-blue fog of doom. Follow the rather straight-forward path to the nextroom. In here, walk up and hit the lever to open the way to a chest with 2100GALD. Head down the stairs and get the chest with a LIFE BOTTLE before headingup to the next screen. Finally, follow the next three screens and you ll be outof this place!

    Ah, the good outdoors. Enjoy the nice view along with a SAVORY herb from thechest just up ahead.

    ===============================================================================Babilograd [ToR1S]===============================================================================

    You hear that lovely, heavenly music? It s the music of pure awesomenesscelebrating our escape from the Climber s Cavern. Alright!

    So, Babilograd has a special type of religion that doesn t let women talk tomen that are not part of their family, as well as vice versa. You ll have toswitch characters with your L2/R2 buttons to be able to talk to everyone inhere. Also, your conversations may change depending if you use a Gajuma orHuma character.

    The first thing to do here is to enter the house in the upper left. Examine thetable to learn the OMELETTE recipe. Head outside and take the northern exit.Enter the house on the right and talk to the man inside for a scene. Looks likewe can t ride the lift to the port yet, so let s explore the town. Exit thehouse and head up again. You ll see Ox again, standing in between a randomhouse and the shopping center. Enter it and stock up on any items you need andupgrade your weapons accordingly. The accessory peddler will also be there.

    Exit through the left and you ll trigger a scene. Afterwards, head to the Inn,stock up on food if needed, and save. If you go down from this screen you ll beable to find Dana s house, and she ll be in the second floor. However, if yougo up from the Inn you ll eventually find a temple-like building. Enter it andyou ll notice that it was the building Claire was in not too long ago...

    Anyway, now that we re done exploring it s time to see the Lift Manager again,so head to his house.

    Okay, looks like Walt s Force is at work here. We re going to have toneutralize it once more so head outside of this house and go up to where Ox isstanding. Enter the house on the right and speak to the woman inside to triggera scene. After, head upstairs to talk with her husband. Finally head out of the

    house for one last scene.Time to head to the temple. If you don t remember how to get there, it s onlyleft of here and then up two screens.

    After the scene check the book by the altar. You ll receive the BLUE BEASTSCRIPTURES. Now we have a short but tedious task ahead of us. You must talk toeveryone in this town before heading back to the Lift Manager. The keyword isITOSHIKISORA. Lanyn's translation guide should explain how to write it if youdon't known hiragana. Press the TRIANGLE button to finish inputting thekeyword.

    After the scene exit the house and before heading to the right to ride the lift

    go back to the Inn to save.

    Milista HP: 17050

    My level: 31

    If you re as leveled up as I am, you won t have trouble with this battle.Thankfully, you should already know how to handle these two due to yourprevious encounters. Focus on Milista first, who not only has less HP but isprobably the most irritating due to her constant teleporting. Beware of herSpectral Field attack as usual.

    Once you re down to one, this battle will be a breeze. Walt can inflict Panicon you, so if you have any Panic Charms, make sure to equip them. He s reallynot much of a threat alone so you ll be done in no time.

    You ll receive a Grape Gummy, a Panic Charm, and a Light Resist ring for yourefforts, along with 3800 Gald and 4222 EXP.=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

    In the following scene you ll meet a very important character by the name ofMilhaust. Walt and Milista will retreat, and Selena along with two other girlswill finally be saved. Looks like Claire was moved two or so days ago though.Heh, did you think it was going to be that easy?

    After the scene ends there are a couple things to do before continuing the

    storyline.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------*SIDEQUEST #2* Mobile Library, Part 3 of 18*SIDEQUEST #3* Completion Old Man, Part 3 of 16

    First, return to Babilograd via lift. Enter the Lift Manager s house beforeexiting it again and you ll be able to trigger a skit where Hilda will gain her

    Sake Lover title which has a +3 Thrust Attack Power bonus. Also, if you sleepat an Inn you might trigger another skit about Annie s diary.

    With that done, head to the entrance of the town to talk to the man in thecowboy hat. It s time to head back to Minal. Head for the Gymnasium and talk to

    the Completion Old Man to receive an APPLE GUMMY. Then head to the Library andto talk to the guy upstairs as usual before returning to Babilograd s Harbor.Now don t cry but when you ask the guy to transport you back to Babilograd,you ll be outside the Climber s Cavern. Yes, you have to go through this again,but at least you know the way now! Once in the Harbor, enter the Inn and headto the second floor to speak with the fish-like Gajuma on the left. Then returnto Minal, talk to the guy in the library. With that done, please endure theClimber s Cavern one last time as you make your way back to Babilograd.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Alright, let s head to the Harbor. Talk to the sailor by the ship and you ll beon your way to Balka!

    ===============================================================================Balka's Harbor [ToR1U]===============================================================================

    From here, just exit to the left. At the end of this screen there s an ItemStore managed by a bear-like Gajuma. Stock up on items if needed and continueon to the left. A foreboding scene will play out. If you want, sleep in the Innto trigger a skit about Eugene s childhood. If not, just exit the Harbor andyou ll end up in the World Map.

    It ll be very foggy but you should be able to see the main path without aproblem. There s a Farm Fresh Groceries location around, if you care to lookfor it. Anyway, follow the path to reach the city of Balka!

    ===============================================================================Balka [ToR1V]===============================================================================

    Before heading to the Karegia Castle, let s explore the town first. Thebuilding to the right is an Inn, so stock up on food and save if you want. Theman dressed in blue in the upper left corner is a Train Conductor that willtake you around the city if you talk to him. But let s walk around first. Takethe upper right path to find the Item/Accessory Store. The Accessory Store willnow begin selling Onyx rings. Exit the store and head up to the next screen.There ll be a Bar here. Enter it and check out one of the tables to get theCARBONARA recipe. Exit the bar. If you head up the stairs on the left you llend up outside the Karegia Castle, so don t go there yet. Keep in mind thatthere s another Train Conductor in that area though. Anyway head back to thefirst screen. Take the left path this time and you ll see the Equipment Store.It sells the same things as the last city, so unless you haven t upgraded yet,there s no need to enter it. Take the upper right path and you ll find a secondItem Store as well as another Train Operator. Since we ve explored seeneverything the city has to offer already, go ahead and talk to the conductorhere and choose the second option. You ll be outside the Castle once more. Time

    to head inside.The POV will switch back to Claire for now. Exit the room and watch the scenethat ensues. Things aren t looking good for Claire. Let s save her quickly!

    When you are back in control, head over to the Train Conductor and pick thethird option. Enter the house there and head to the back to trigger a scene.You ll meet Yottsua, the country s best source of information. He ll direct youto a man named Jibel who knows how to get inside the Castle. Exit this placeand talk to the conductor once more. Chose the first option to return to thefirst screen of the city. Take the upper right exit and enter the red house onthe right. Pass the door and head down the stairs. Inside the next roomthere ll be an old guy sitting in the middle of the room. That s your target.

    When you talk to him a scene will play out.You re going to have to leave two of your party members behind for now. Anyonebut Veigue and Mao will do. Personally, I left Tytree and Eugene behind. WhileI love having Eugene in my party, lately I m more incline to have Annie forhealing, Mao and Hilda for spells, and Veigue for brute force.

    Anyway, chose whomever you like. Their names will be displayed in this order.

    When you re done exit out of the town and head to the northeast. Ourdestination is the Mesechina Cavern. On your way you should find a chest with aBUTTER TICKET inside, and not too far after that there ll a DISCOVERY SPOT. Idefinitely don t know how to translate this one either, but it looks like agravestone of sorts. Past it will be our next dungeon.

    With that said, ignore the ladder at the north as that way is a dead end.Instead take the stairs on the right and enter the next screen. Pass thisscreen and you ll end up in a room with a lever and a chest containing AQUA

    POWDER. Flip the lever and return to the previous screen. Examine the wall toopen up a door to the next screen. Past this room and you ll end up at a fork.Take the upper right door first to obtain PEACH GUMMY and then return to takethe left. Pass the stairs and at the next room a scene will play out.

    This puzzle is pretty simple. You just have to make the left clock look thesame as the right one, so examine it three times and you ll be able to continueon. In the next room, ignore the huge staircase and go up the ladder in theback to get a MIGHTY ONYX from a chest. Backtrack to the previous room and thistime head up the staircase to exit through the northern door. Head up thestairs to finally arrive at the Castle.
